    How to Provide Documentation

    Learn the seven basic criteria for documentation and find documentation guidelines listed by accommodation and/or by disability.

  3. Self-serve accommodation exchanges

    If you would like to make the following changes to approved accommodations, you may do so directly in SSD Online without submitting a new request for review. 

     

    • Reducing extended time (ex: Up to Double Time (+100%) to Up to Time and One-Half (+50%)
    • Changing types of breaks
    • Switching Screen Reader (Non-Embedded) and Text-to-Speech (Embedded)
    • Changing from Small Group Testing to Preferential Seating

     

    Once submitted, the exchange is processed automatically, and a new decision letter is available in about 15 minutes.            
                
    Coordinators can start an exchange by going to the Student Profile and selecting Exchange Accommodations under Actions. If the accommodation is not eligible for exchange, they must submit a New Request.            
     

FAQ

Is documentation required to remove an accommodation?

No. But the student should notify the school before test day. Students under age 18 will need a signed consent from a parent or guardian.
